The education system in Qatar is jointly directed and controlled by the Supreme Education Council (SEC) and the Ministry of Education and Higher Education (MOEHE) at all levels. The SEC is responsible for overseeing independent schools, whereas the MOE is responsible for providing support to private schools.[5] Formal schooling officially began in 1956.[6] Primary schooling is obligatory for every child and is free in public schools.[6]

Education in Qatar is very diverse, with several schools representing a variety of international curriculum systems.[7] There are approximately 338 international schools in the country.[5] Several prestigious universities from around the world have satellite campuses in the country in Education City and within the suburbs of the capital Doha.[8]
